Looking at a Tuscan, everything in order but the colour combinations not to everyones taste - Starmist and red interior.

I've never seen another with this combination - do you recon I'll have problems shifting it when it comes time to sell?

Worth me just hanging on until a similar car in 'normal' colours comes along?

I've not seen it in the flesh yet - anyone head me in the right direction for any more pictures of this combination??

Cheers people!

There were so many options with the colours that there are very few which are the same, and they were all at the mercy of the original buyer.

You don't say which 'starmist' colour, TVR did Starmist Blue, Starmist Grey, Starmist Chianti (dark red), Starmist Green, and Starmist Silver, and IMHO all would go with a Red interior. Again, TVR did a bright red interior, and a 'less red' mulberry leather options. The Mulberry would go great with Blue, Grey, and Silver, and wouldn't be offensive against the others. I'd be less positive about the bright red, but that's just my view!

Bottom line is buy the car if 'you' like it and it drives like it should thumbup

And there I was thinking I was relatively educated about these cars.....

Chitinti Startmist with 'dull' red interior (think red wine colour)

I need to see it in the flesh but I'm starting to come round to the concept.....not sure the girlfriend will ever cope though.

The colour of my Tuscan is Chianti starmist but with a biscuit interior. Chianti starmist looks like black from a distant and I think a dark red interior will look good with it.

mine is black with a black/black interior. exactly what i wanted when i bounght it... but now thinking a more interresting interior would have been better.

the mulberry interior sounds lovely... go for it

Great to see that I'm not being blinded by my want of the car.

Wasnt sure at first but the colours are really growing on me.

Its all down to your own individual preference. I have an Iced Titanium tuscan with full mulburry leather and full ruby carpets everywhere, ie. no 2 tone interior colours anywhere to be seen! As you can imagine i have never seen another tuscan spec'd like mine but it is gorgeous. Even after 3.5 years of ownership she still looks fantastic and if i had the money for a change i would spec up a Saggy in the same colours. Ruby and mulberry are great!!!
